Personal Data

Van der Valk processes different types of personal data for different purposes. We explain below which personal data we process, and for which purposes.

Guest records

For (the booking of) an overnight stay in one of our accommodation facilities or for renting one of our conference rooms, the hotel requires your name, address, place of residence, telephone number, date of arrival and departure and your payment details. We can receive these data from third parties with whom you have completed the booking process. We may request additional personal data from you such as your nationality or guest preferences, to enable us to supply you with our products and/or services. We only process health-related data subject to your consent, to enable us to improve our service to you, for example by offering disabled access. In addition, we are required by law to check your identity. We will do this on the spot, in the hotel, according to the identity document you present. We will not make a copy of this document. This data will only be used internally and will not be shared with other organisations, for commercial purposes.

CCTV monitoring

To the extent necessary for the security of its property and to protect its guests, Van der Valk makes use of CCTV monitoring. Van der Valk uses CCTV images to monitor the activities of people and vehicle registration numbers.

Van der Valk account

You can create a Van der Valk account. In the case of a future request, this makes it easier to make bookings and request information, because we no longer need to once again request your personal data. To create an account, we will ask you to provide your name, place of residence, telephone number and e-mail data. This personal data will be stored in our database.

Van der Valk app

You can download the free Van der Valk app. Using our app, you can easily and securely make a reservation. It is also possible to pay for already made reservations, via the app. You will need a Van der Valk account, which you can also create in the app. As described above, we will ask you to provide us with your name, place of residence, telephone number and e-mail data.

Direct Marketing

To enable us to provide you with offers that interest you, we collect commercially relevant information about people, such as demographic data. We can collect information about you from third parties including information from our partners and social media sites, according to your data sharing settings on those websites.

Social media

Van der Valk has a presence on various social media, such as Facebook. We can use your personal data when you use functions on these websites and/or apps, such as when you ‘like’ something on Facebook. We can obtain your personal data via our social media in question whenever you use a function of this kind.

Application procedure

Van der Valk collects and processes data about applicants by means of personal contacts, by post, by e-mail and/or telephone calls. We collect data such as an applicant’s name, gender, contact details, application letters, education level, and employment history. These data are relevant for completing the application procedure and will be deleted by no later than 4 weeks after that procedure is completed. If you give your consent, Van der Valk may keep your personal data in its records for longer, so that we can once again contact you, in the future.

Employees

Van der Valk also processes personal data of its employees, in the framework of the contract of employment and on the basis of statutory obligations. For information about the processing of personal data of employees, you are referred to the staff manual of the entity where you are employed.

Recipients

Except in the following circumstances, we do not share your personal data with businesses, organisations and individuals outside Van der Valk.

Performance of an agreement

We are permitted to provide your personal data to a third party if this is necessary for us to meet our contractual obligations to you. This includes the processing of your reservation. If necessary for payment for the reservation, we will use a third party for processing i-Deal payments.

With your consent

With your consent, we can provide your personal data to other parties. Such consent is only valid if you are clear about what you are consenting to and what the consequences of that consent will be.

For external processing

We provide personal data to our partners so they can process these data for us based on our instructions and in accordance with our privacy policy and other applicable confidentiality and security measures. Our partners include our IT suppliers and the manager of the CRM system.

For legal reasons

We share personal data if we believe we are required to disclose that data to comply with applicable laws and regulations, legal proceedings, or requests from government agencies.

Statutory obligation

We will provide your personal data if we are required to do so by law. That might be the case, for example, if the police request data from us in the context of a fraud investigation. Another example might involve a request from a Tax Inspector, who is entitled, pursuant to Section 47 of the Dutch General Tax Act [Algemene wet inzake rijksbelastingen], to demand all information that could be relevant to the imposition of taxation. Finally, the municipal authorities can also ask us to provide data to check the tourist tax return. Van der Valk enters into agreements with the recipients of your personal data to ensure that the personal data are handled confidentially, and adequately secured.

Retention period

We do not keep your personal data any longer than necessary, unless the law requires us to keep your personal data for a longer period of time. Our basic principle is that we keep personal data only as long as necessary to enable us to supply you with our products and/or services. After this goal is achieved, we will delete your personal data to the extent possible. You can for example create a Van der Valk account as explained above in section 2. We will delete inactive accounts after a period of inactivity of 2 years. If you have provided us with your e-mail address (possibly via your account) to enable us to keep you informed of our services, we will continue to keep your data, for that purpose.

Transfer of personal data outside the EU

Van der Valk is authorised to transfer your personal data from the Netherlands, to foreign countries. Countries within the European Economic Area (EEA) have same level of personal data protection as the Netherlands. Taking account of the general requirements laid down in legislation and regulations governing privacy, we can transfer your personal details to countries within the EEA. Our hotels in the Caribbean area also considered part of the European Economic Area. We may do this within our group, for example, to keep our business operations effective.

We will only transfer your personal data outside the EEA if the country in question offers a suitable level of protection. To make this possible, Van der Valk uses the model contracts approved by the European Commission.
